Pairing meme days 9-12

I've been neglecting this meme for 4 days... Oops?


Day 9 - Favourite family unit (four or more people)



The Bluth family - Arrested Development


Honorable mention : the Chance family (Raising Hope), new but ORSUM.


Day 10 - Least favourite pairing

Clark Kent and Lana Lang. SRSLY. Especially since I'm watching Smallville again at the moment, they were like, THE ABSOLUTE WORST and it's like it would never fucking die. You thought it did and then it would come back again, and again, and again.

Honorable mentions : Jeremy/Bonnie (The Vampire Diaries) : DIE BONNIE DIE, Luke/Reid (ATWT): forced, made no sense, lost all their chemistry and wit the second they were actually a couple, got in the way of my OTP, Angel/Cordelia (ATS) : loved them separately, couldn't stand them together. I thought it harmed both characters (also, they basically tossed Wesley to the curb without second thought and I will never ever ever forgive them for that).


Day 11 - An "OT3" or threesome



Amy Pond/Eleventy/Rory Pond


BEST OT3 TEAM TARDIS EVER. EVEN MORE SINCE SPACE AND TIME \o/

Honorable mention : Damon/Stefan/Elena (or Katherine). HOT.


Day 12 - Favourite Person and Animal Companion Relationship



Naboo and Bolo - The Mighty Boosh


I struggled to find something for that one and then these two struck me, which PERFECTION.

I'm watching the second half of Smallville season 7 for the first time and it's *so good* SRSLY. I gave up on the show halfway through this season and I realized that I did so just before it became really really awesome. Fracture (one of the slashiest, most beautiful Clex episode ever OMG) and Descent in particular blew me away and I'm actually excited for Lex's (well first) final episode! I really love the Veritas arc, it was a great way to tie in with the show's origins. So this definitely proves that SV's odd numbered seasons rule is correct. and Lex's fall into darkness is much better handled here than it was last season. It's less focused on the Clark/Lex/Lana triangle and more focused on Lionel and Clark's influence on his life, which is way more relevant.
No matter how much I love Clark this time around (even if he's still a spectacular dumbass at times, but y'know A PRETTY ONE *shallow), I will forever and ever be on Team Lex. It doesn't matter how evil he gets, he will forever be a broken, misunderstood woobie with the worst life ever. I EMPATHIZE WITH U BB.

Yes, I do know that I'm having all these *feelings* 3 years too late BUT I DUN CURR.

Season 7 isn't my favourite season because of all the focus on krypton's past didn't really interest me that much. And with Zor-El and Lara suddenly appearing, and Grant being Julian, it all just got a little too convoluted and cheesy for me!

But I did think the final stretch of episodes with Lex getting closer to Clark's secret was a very well-done arc

And agreed on Fracture and Descent! I love love love that whole "no one will even remember your name" opening teaser, and the final Clex confrontation over the gravesite :dies:

Tbh I didn't rewatch many episodes from the start of the season (and didn't see anything with Lara and Zor-El, eh) so I couldn't possibly comment even if everything you're listing is probably the reason why I stopped watching in the first place, lulz oh show.
I picked the latter episodes based on their summaries since I hadn't seen them before and I'm really shocked by how good they turned out to be!

and the final Clex confrontation over the gravesite :dies:

OMG THIS SCENE WAS SO CHARGED WITH EMOTIONS. AND SO BEAUTIFULLY SHOT ADKSAMLDKALM LET ME DIE.

Ah Smallville, you will still have a speshul place in my heart.

So I don't even remember when I stopped watching Smallville. It was before Lex left though and I have no idea what happened and why he's not there anymore. I did, however, just watch 'Scion' because... well if you don't know yet you will. I still think the show is ridic, but if you're enjoying some of the latter half of season 7, maybe I'll have to check them out as well. I do miss the good ol' Smallville days. Although even then there were issues. Plenty of CLex though *happy sigh*

AKSJDKLJALK I JUST FINISHED S7. LAST RUN OF EPS WAS CLEXTACULAR AND EPIC OMG.

I thought they ended the Clark/Lex story rather well (for now that is, TEEHEE)

AND DUDE, LOL YOUR PREACHING TO THE CHOIR. The show has always been ridic and good chunk of it is just plain bad (there's a reason why I'm only rewatching some of it, eh) but when they do get it right then it can be quite awesome and squee worthy.

I know about Scion ;D I heard 'Luthor' is also a good s10 episode, I plan on catching up with some of it.

As for season 7, if you do want to watch them then here's the list of the ones I've seen fron the last arc :

7x12 Fracture (CLEXFEST <333)
7x14 Traveler
7x15 Veritas
7x16 Descent
7x18 Apocalypse
7x19 Quest
7x20 Arctic

Oooh thank you for the list! I'll admit, I've been missing the Clark/Lex dynamic and could use something to watch anyway. Danke!

I couldn't resist watching all the picspams, the pic of Clark and Lex at Lionel's grave is so beautiful, too bad I can't use it for my header (caps isn't sharable).

Great post :)

Clark and Lana, worst pairing EVER!!

the pic of Clark and Lex at Lionel's grave is so beautiful

WAIT TIL YOU SEE THE ACTUAL SCENE *DIES ALL OVER AGAIN*

Clark and Lana, worst pairing EVER!!

UNBEATABLE OMG. But at least now they're dead and buried and have been rightfully replaced by one of the most iconic het pairing of all time so \o/
